The Buddha’s not there. The Illision of Truth

Buddha looks inside himself and sees the void, the void is nothing.

Does Buddha pluck his eye out to see his other eye? No.

Does Buddha look at the mirror to see inside himself? No.

Does Buddha see others plucking out their eyes? No.

Buddha sees others staring into their mirrors.

What do they see?

They see themselves.

And so does the Buddha.

But Buddha knows there is nothing he can see inside of himself.

He tells himself he’s not there and laughs.

He tells the others they are not there and laughs.

They laugh.

Buddha is happy.

Buddha understands, do you?

The illusion of consciousness.

If there is nothing there, where am I?

If I can influence others, what am I influencing?

The nothing that is not there?

I doubt that.

If I am not here, why do I know that?

Why can I look?

What can I see?

I see the world.

The watcher cannot deny he exists.

(Buddha is enlightened.)

Can you?

God only exists in the void.

God is placed in the void by others.

God cannot be seen.

God is an experience.

Remember the experience.

Remember God.

God is void.

What can God see? Nothing.

What does God say? Nothing.

What does God feel? Everything.

What can you see? The world.

Do you see God? No.

Does God speak to Man? No longer.

God is only remembered.

He is still there.

Remember God.

Remember yourself.

How does it feel?

The Nerd Rapture: The Second Singularity is Coming, but it's not the POINT.

If evolution can create it, so can man. There is and will be intelligent design. It's only a matter of time. We are in the midst of the last great battle of reason over evolution -- why is this happening now? Because evolution developed the first great singularity [1] about 300 thousand years ago. And it happened to our ancestors and they learned to talk somehow, really talk. Talking lets you pass information between generations at an exponentially faster speed than evolution does. Evolution is slow. We evolved complex language which let us talk about abstract concepts very quickly, in evolutionary terms. This happened a long time ago in human terms (in the blink of an eye in evolutionary terms.) This ability to know thyself and talk about it is the genesis of the tree of knowledge story. Not only did humans name all the animals, they could now talk about and reason about what an animal would do. [2] Darwinian evolution signed its own death warrant that day. In evolutionary time ...

Capitalism is not inherently bad, unethical or immoral. Limited Liability Companies? They are the engines that pollute the world.

What is wrong with capitalism? I blame Limited Liability Corporations . Let’s be clear: Corporations are not human beings. Corporations have no conscience. Corporations are immoral, doing whatever it takes to survive. Capitalism tried to harvest that greed to benefit all mankind. Most would say it's been successful; however, without regulations, Corporations will do anything to improve their profits. They will lie, cheat and steal. Corporations will force their costs on anyone they can, refuse to clean up their messes and kill people if it means they will make more profits. They have no other incentive without regulations. As Limited Liability Corporations the owners have no fear of retribution from the state, except to lose their investment. It’s a perfect storm of corruption. Capitalism is designed to harness this immoral greed and attempt to benefit mankind. And it works surprisingly well. The number of people in abject poverty has fallen absolutely in the last few decades. [ UR...

Political Corruption

What is Corruption? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption Political corruption occurs when an office-holder or other governmental employee acts in an official capacity for personal gain. It’s essentially the protection racket: unless you pay me, you will be threatened and you will not get what you want; even though they are legally required to provide aservice. Corruption: why is this a secular (real) sin? It causes individual and societal harm causing everyone to be poorer and bullies to be crueler. Because it breaks the golden rule of ethical requirements. Kant : Categorical Imperative. The same rule must apply to everyone. Copernicus : Anthropomorphic principle. You are not the center of world, Dawkins : Intelligent Design: Morals must be supported with reason. Dennet : The basis of morals come from evolution, but they are not constrained by it. Ethics must be universal : All men are created equal in the eyes of the law (the state must not play favorites...
